‘2012′: A one-trick pony that tends to buck
What do you do with a movie like “2012″? It’s 160 minutes of fantastic, expensive visuals. That much is obvious from the trailers. Having seen the special effects marathon with my own eyes, I stand by the sentiment I had going in: If you can see yourself ever, at any point in time, seeing “2012″ then you should do so now while it is on the big screen. Really, the argument could be made that “2012″ is a movie that should only be seen on the big screen, because I don’t know if there is any real reason to rent it later or buy it on DVD.
